NHL broadcasts run through three primary lanes. National games air on ESPN, ESPN+, TNT, and Max under the league's media-rights deals. In-market Montreal Canadiens games are on TSN and RDS across Quebec, which Fubo does not carry. ESPN+ serves as the catch-all for out-of-market viewers — every regular-season game outside your local TV market streams there.
For Montreal Canadiens games specifically, the provider filters above will surface upcoming games watchable on your current cable, streaming, or RSN subscriptions before you decide whether ESPN+ is worth adding for the rest of the season.
